You Know You're That Friend When...

If you relate to any of these, your friends probably think so, too.

You Know You're That Friend When...
Leah Swander

All of my friends know about my flaws, physically and emotionally. I always seem to be "that one friend" that is always doing something out of the ordinary compared to my friend group. I'm wondering if there are any others that are somewhat like me, and maybe we can hang out and be "those friends" together.


1. You Are Always Late

No matter what time an event is, how long before you knew about it or even if you're not driving, you are always running late. It's normal for your friends to lie about what time dinner is, hoping you actually make it when everyone else does.


2. You Double, Triple And Even Quadruple Text The Group Message

You truly don't care if your friends are annoyed. You will get your point across and you will be heard.


3. You're Always The One To Let Your Freak Flag Fly

Although your friends may have to baby-sit you all night long, you aren't afraid to get the party started. Whether you're busting out a move or initiating the conversation, it's never embarrassing to put a little pep in everyone's step (to you at least).


4. If Someone Breaks Your BFF's Heart, They Will Hear From You

You are the voice your friends are too scared to have. If anyone messes with any of your homies, close or not, they'll have to go through you first.


5. You Are Drama

Although it's not always a bad thing, you always have something to say. Whether it was the fight with your boyfriend one week, or the girl who gave you the stink eye at the gym, you're most likely always complaining. You keep things interesting and you love to brag/complain to your friends about whatever it is.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
